merci, merci obscura magazine - published!

10 Aug 2011

Have you heard of Obscura magazine? Well I hadn't back in June when I received an email asking if they could use some of my Merci imagesin their magazine. Since then I've discovered the magazine is produced by a team in Hong Kong.

My copy of the magazine arrived on Monday and here is the final lay-out.

It's always such a thrill seeing your work in print. I haven't had a chance to look through the magazine properly yet but I hope to this coming weekend. What the magazine didn't know - I wason my way to Paris to shoot more images of Merci.Holly from decor8has just done a lovely pieceon her blog featuring my images. This is my take on Merci.

You may notice the images are a little different from my normal style. How different? Well those of you who've followed my blog for a while, know that it's all about the detail with my work, but not in this case. I received very specific instructions that I was to shoot 'panoramiques' only.

I tried my best to fulfil the brief, but gosh it was difficult.

I bought a few little treasures for myself from Merci and yes, some of the items are still waiting to be unwrapped, so no photos for now I'm afraid.

Lots more to come. I still have 2 more UK shopshoots to share with you as well as my black and white film images from Paris, so stay tuned!Jillian
